About Raisin

Raisin is a sweet Cairn Terrier who recently found himself in our care after his owner could no longer keep him. At 11 years old, this small black gentleman has plenty of love to give. His past experiences suggest he may have some training, but like any new home, it'll take time for him to adjust and feel comfortable. Our team will be spending time with Raisin to understand his personality better and will update his bio as we learn more. If you’re interested in making Raisin part of your family, please fill out an adoption questionnaire. Keep in mind that our adoption process operates on a first-come, best-match basis. When you come to meet him, make sure all members of your household join to ensure everyone clicks. If he’s the right fit, we support same-day adoptions! Raisin’s adoption fee covers his neutering, vaccinations, microchip, and a starter pack of supplies to help you settle him in. Ready to give this cuddly friend a forever home? Apply today!
